Answer:

Blue should record $2,240,000 of goodwill as a result of this purchase.

Explanation:

Fair value of Assets = $13,210,000 + $600,000 = $13810,000

Liabilities = $4,275,000

Net Asset = Total fair value of asset – Total Liabilities

Net Assets = $13,810,000 – $4,275,000 = $9,535,000

Goodwill = Acquisition price – Net Assets

Goodwill = $11,775,000 - $9,535,000 = $2,240,000

Blue should record $2,240,000 of goodwill as a result of this purchase.
